THE EMERGENCE OF HINDUISM FROM CHRISTIANITY |
Modern Hinduism is of recent origin. It emerged out of
syncretic synthesis of Christianity as introduced by
St.Thomas and Gnosticism that came from Syria. Are
there evidences? Hinduism (with idols and its temples)
appear only later than the second century and in Kerala only
after eighth century AD. Who was Mahabali? What is the
Kalabhra Interregnum?

ISOVASYA UPAISHAD:
THE DOCTRINE OF THE IMMANENCE OF JESUS |
Isovasya Upanshad is one of
the early Upansihads which introduced the concept of
monothiesm in the Indian Religious Scenario. It was
the first time the name Isa - coming from the proper name
"Jesus" came to mean the Supreme God - a new concept in
India at that time. This Upanishad was probably
written at a time when the Gnostics were the main contenders
of the Thomas Christianity and speak of how Avidya and Vidya
(ignorance and gnosis both lead to death. Isavasya
Upanishad is probably one of the earliest Christian document
in India.

Christianity and the Origin of Sanskrit
Dr. Alexander Harris |
Presented at the First
International Conference on the History of Early Christianity
in India, New York, August 2005. The dating of the
origin of Sanskrit as around 150 AD spoils the "Sanskrit as
the oldest language in the World" claim.

HINDUISM
–What Really Happened in
India. |
An in depth analysis of
the history of the basic Hindu concepts to ascertain their
origin. It is shown that Hindu Gods of Prajapathy,
Vishnu, Siva, Pillayar, Krishna etc are actually an
indigenized form of Christ derived from syncretic influence of
Gnosticism of Manichaean, Greek, and modern Theosophical
movements. This claim is revolutionary and we do
have enough evidence to support this proposal.

D.A.Sakes
1883 |
A Brief
comparison between the chief events, characteristics and

Brindabun of Mathurapuri with concise review of Hinduism,
proving its derivation from Christianity. Written in
A.D. 1883 by D.A.Sakes M.D., B.M.S a British Administrator
from Jubbulpore.
“India once enjoyed the light of Christianity to some extent ;
that left to herself for a time, owing to that paralysis of
true religion which followed the success of Rome, certain
innovations were introduced, and certain sects created, which
renounced some of the established forms, and adopted forms
peculiar to themselves.” |
